Buzzcast

Buzzcast helps podcasters stay informed, inspired, and excited to keep podcasting.

Each week, Jordan, Kevin, and Alban break down the podcasting news, trends, tools, and creator debates that actually matter. We share what we’re seeing at Buzzsprout, what we’re testing ourselves, and what podcasters should pay attention to without chasing every new thing.

The goal is to help you keep podcasting without burning out. Expect honest opinions, practical takeaways, occasional rabbit trails, and a reminder that podcasting should be fun!

Fan Mail

I’m definitely a super fan of Buzzcast and Buzzsprout! I’ve been thinking about why. (Are we doing an episode about fandom? Yes we are!) I think it comes down to two things: connection and value. I like working with companies where I know the people behind the company. I appreciate that Buzzsprout does a podcast and shows up at conferences—and it’s not only team members. It’s also the cofounders taking the time to do those things, which shows me Buzzsprout cares about its customers. Buzzsprout provides value to me with the elegant and easy to use interface and truly helpful features like Magic Mastering and built-in listener support options. Beyond the value to me personally, I appreciate your commitment to open podcasting. As an indie author my books aren't exclusive to Kindle Unlimited. They’re “wide” and available everywhere, which means it takes 13 manual uploads at the sites to distribute all formats of my books. Retailers are gatekeepers and any one of them could decide they don’t like me and take down my books. RSS is a magical and valuable thing! I appreciate your commitment to keeping it that way! 🙂 -Sara Wish I’d Known Then
